Amazing view a must visit place! Food was better than expected, pretty good selection of ales , beer, wine and cocktails! I ordered the Seaweed beef burger which was super tasty and the fries were very well cooked.
Just had a lovely meal here. Nice to finally find some traditional Welsh food served quickly by some lovely, friendly, attentive staff. Excellent prices, excellent quality and flavour and good selection of food both vegetarian and non vegetarian. Ample parking. Had the cawl starter, butternut squash, beans and cheese pie (was lightly spiced) and four layer chocolate fudge cake with the creamiest vanilla ice-cream.
A big thanks to the staff and Alanda in particular for fitting us in for food with no notice and at a very busy time. The vegan cottage pie was delicious. The view from the beer garden is also one of the best we've been to.
Undoubtably the best roast we have ever tasted. Location fantastic and lovely staff. Please visit this marvellous dreamy gem
This is a must place to visit we went for lunch. Service was exceptional friendly staff and the food good It’s very nice to sit outside on a sunny day. Would definitely recommend this pub
Perfect pub to accompany a walk, had a nice walk around Lawrenny, then came for luvly pints and some amazing food. From what it seemed it is a family run pub, the food was so good! So much choice and specials were brilliant. The feeling of sat on the estuary with a beer in hand enjoying a pork roll out of this world.
The Lawrenny Arms managed to accommodate a group of 10 and a dog last minute and we had a wonderful meal. The food was tasty and the staff were very friendly. Price of food was very reasonable and generous portions.
